| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generated several major asset types: UI, backgrounds, icons, and audio. That covers most visual categories plus sound, so AI is a large part of what ships. Only one release in 12 months and no volume pattern, so effort risk stays medium. Against: Developer has only one recent release, not a high-volume pattern; 2 reviews is too few to judge reception. |
